Economy mode can run 50 miles with just a single charge while the sport mode can run for 35 miles with the same charge.

Bolt M-1

Bolt M-1 is really a fun commute to ride whether you drive it on road or on bicycle lane. You just need toget on, give the throttle a twist and you are on the go. The control and steady riding experience is something that would make any biker love it.

But how is the experience when you go uphill? Even when going uphill you experience the same silence of the engine. Truly speaking, you have the same experience on any road while riding a Bolt. You just do not have any clutches to slip or gears to shift while experiencing a quiet noiseless journey. This smooth, silent and simple biking experience is another reason to ride a Bolt.
